I'm only moderately knowledgable of hardware technical aspects so I don't really know if the fan is built to handle overclocking or not. Is this normal or does this mean the test is stopping prematurely due to overheating? Im using the stock CPU fan that came with the 8350 and I'm wondering, is it crazy to try to overclock with the 8350 stock fan? Google results say that the stock fans aren't really made for overclocking but I'd hoped that AMD would have shipped the 8350 with a higher-end fan to handle overclocking simply due to the fact that the 8350 is more of an enthusiast model. Intel Core i5 10400 2.9GHz 6Core 12Thread LGA1200 - TRAY + FAN INTEL. Also, of the 3 times I've tried to run this auto-tune test, it gives me a popup saying that 'the system must be rebooted now' after the 3rd or 4th 'round' of the test for lack of a better word. I'm wondering if this is ok or if this is indicative of dangerous stress levels on the system. When I try to run the CCC CPU Overdrive Auto-Tune utility which iteratively tests the system stability at increasing clock levels, I find that Windows seems to go into some type of safe-mode mechanism of sorts where application windows have a Vista look-and-feel rather than my usual Windows 7 Aero w/ transparency look-and-feel about 5 minutes into the auto-tune test procedure.
